AdolescentYou will agree with me that pregnancy at an early age is very dangerous for a girl’s life. Most girls are pregnant by not having knowledge of the risk they are exposed, many of them think it is something that is not going to happen. Others deny it or do not say it, so sometimes there is no time for specialized care to avoid complications.
Some boys and girls practice unprotected sex, with the false concept that an abortion or a menstrual regulation can interrupt pregnancy and the problem is solved or in some cases, girls take the abortion pill ‘’misoprostol’’, which helps expel the fetus. Interruption is not a contraceptive method; it is an option that should not be considered as it involves risks for adolescents: perforation of the uterus, infection, bleeding, among others. Prevention is the ideal method. So parents have to guide them, and make them understand that pregnancy at this stage is always a risk.
According to experts, when a teenager becomes pregnant, her life endangers because her body does not have the necessary development to face the process of gestation. The arrival of a baby is a big responsibility, and also disrupts your life and your future dreams. It is true that at this stage of existence, communication with parents becomes more complex but we must act intelligently because this is the time when they need us and it is our responsibility to guide them. The risks of getting pregnant start from having her first period, and from the moment you decide to have unprotected sex. Prevention is possible, and with our help they can achieve it.
